‘Vladdy gets the boots’: Baseball world in awe after Guerrero Jr.’s Derby win
After setting the report for residence runs in a single Home Run Derby in 2019 with out successful the entire thing, Vladimir Guerrero Jr. flipped the script in 2023, turning into the Toronto Blue Jays‘ first Derby champ on Monday in Seattle.
He slugged his approach to the victory with a quarterfinal win over Los Angeles Dodgers star Mookie Betts, a semifinal win over hometown favorite Julio Rodriguez and a title-clinching last win over Tampa Bay Rays outfielder Randy Arozarena.
Guerrero Jr. put the stress on Arozarena by blasting 25 balls over the wall at T-Mobile Park, establishing a nail-biting ending that noticed the 2021 AL Rookie of the Year come up two swings quick.
Following the Blue Jays’ star’s win, baseball followers took to Twitter to crown the latest residence run king.
